What it does

Changelog is an agent skill from hashicorp/terraform-provider-aws, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Add a .changelog/<PRNUMBER.txt entry for a GitHub Pull Request, commit, and push.

Its SKILL.md is about 380 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development, covering Changelog and release notes. It works with GitHub and Terraform. The repository describes itself as: The AWS Provider enables Terraform to manage AWS resources. The licence is MPL-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Changelog and release notes

Example prompts

  • “/changelog”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Print the generated file contents back to the user.
  2. Run
  3. Never run git push --force, --force-with-lease, or --no-verify. Never switch or create branches.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 64d3359. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • git

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Changelog loads about 378 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 24 tokens; SKILL.md has 173 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~24
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~378

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

The full file from hashicorp/terraform-provider-aws at commit 64d3359, republished under its MPL-2.0 licence (© hashicorp). 173 words, ~378 tokens.

Skill: Add Changelog Entry

Generate a .changelog/<PR_NUMBER>.txt entry for a GitHub Pull Request, commit it on the current branch, and push.

Authoritative reference: docs/changelog-process.md. When this skill and that document disagree, the document wins.

When to use

Trigger this skill when the user:

  • Says "add changelog", "create changelog entry", "write a release note", or similar.

Do not trigger for:

  • Edits to CHANGELOG.md directly (that file is generated — never modify it by hand).
  • PRs that are docs-only, test-only, code refactors, or dependency bumps with no operator-visible effect.

Do not generate a changelog file if the PR changes do not affect the terraform practitioners in the end.

Do not look at pre-existing changelog files when given the PR, not even if it is present in the diff.

Inputs

  • The <PR_NUMBER> and diff are available from the PR context for which the cloud agent was invoked.

Show, commit and push

  1. Print the generated file contents back to the user.

  2. Run:

    bash
    git add .changelog/<PR_NUMBER>.txt
git commit -m "Add CHANGELOG for #<PR_NUMBER>"
git push

  3. Never run git push --force, --force-with-lease, or --no-verify. Never switch or create branches.
